Deadlift
135x8
205x5
255x5
275x3
300x3x8

I was wanting to get 300x4x8 but after my last set I got a bad headache and felt dizzy...I think it was poor breathing. I came in a sat for awhile. I knew I probably couldn't finish the deads so I thought about doing something else. I picked up the 80 lbs barbell and even light curls felt tough. My CNS just feels drained. Those multiple sets of 8 are rough. I'm going to just do another workout tomorrow.

Probably my last time in the rec center at school. Failed squat attempt I think I went way too slow on the descent...second time I went faster but still under control and got it up....barely. Straps really help getting reps with the RDLs...also you can focus on the muscles being worked instead of just trying to hang on to the bar. GHR and abs were superset.

Romanian Deadlift
225x3x8

I'm excited I got 275 again in the squat. Bodyweight was 179lbs...which is good cause I had went back down to around 175lbs that last week of plans when I couldn't eat like I wanted. Went lighter on the RDL cause I wanted to try to feel it in my hamstrings. Straps come in handy going heavy for reps in those, and I don't have mine here in Nac right now.

245x6
255x3 (failed on 4th rep)

The same with deadlifts last workout, I really started to concentrate on bringing my hips through and I felt it in my hamstrings like I've never felt doing squats before. But it was still a pretty lackluster workout.

I used straps on 300 lbs sets of deadlifts because of a mix of my sweaty hands and the terrible grip on my cheap bar...I never could hold on for more than 3 reps at a time otherwise. I need some more weights.

Preacher curls were great...to bad I can't remember the reps. I failed twice trying for a PR in bench. The first time I think I could have had it, but the spotter had no clue how to spot and kept trying to help...retard. The second time I had a good spot and hand off...just don't think I rested enough. I'll get it next time.

I'm not even close to 100%...I've been fighting off crud for the past 3 days. I had full intentions of doing 300x10x3 for deads, but just wasn't up to it...my form was shit. Also, my lower back was already shot (I guess from spending hours the past few days stooped over coloring maps). My neck started throbbing after the pull ups so I just called it quits. Better than nothing I guess.

Thursday, November 6, 2008

Squat
135x5
185x2x5

Tried squatting, but my neck starting acting up (from somehow hurting it benching the other day). I felt it on the first set and tried to ignore it and continue, but couldn't. This sucks, hopefully it'll heal so I can deadlift Saturday so at least the week wouldn't be a total waste.

Was planning on having the best lower body workout ever. Trying to turn my negative emotional energy I have right now into the best workout ever. Then I hurt my fucking back on a warm up set of 225. Not happy right now...possibly the least happy I've ever been in my life. Nothing is fucking going right for me. This is a training log, its not a damn diary so I'm just going to end it right there.

I'm not happy with this workout, but I don't know why...maybe it's cause I don't feel absolutely blasted. I missed 275 in squat, but that's nothing new. I'm using 265 as my max when (if) I start Sheiko 29 next week. I wish I could make the GHR feel more natural (gasp...an actual GHR machine would work)...it was hurting my knees using the decline sit-up bench. The chins were for fun...I can't believe how easy 12 were (I could have done more).

Going to start doing 6 sets on dips/chins instead of 8. Felt a little tired...probably should have waited, but was bored. Could of been the mile run this morning. Assuming EZ curl bar is 25 lbs.
Woke up and took a spoon full of peanut butter...30 min later went and ran.

Distance: 1 mile (7 laps in rec center)
Time: 7:32

I possibly lost count of sets on DB bench and maybe did one more than I was supposed to...if not, I def missed my target of 6x4...but I'll get it next time. I also once again tweaked my back getting in to position to do the bench...not bad though. I got to get to the root of this back stuff...maybe doing ab work consistently will help. Tried the HS Bench machine and I actually kinda like it--maybe all machines aren't evil. I fooled around with cable crossover but couldn't get it to feel right.

I also did lower body yesterday, but the internet was down so here it is:

Tried GMs and GHR for the first time...and my hams are killing me today. I'm def doing GMs more and I did the GHR on the decline bench that everyone does decline sit-ups on...slightly using my arms to help myself get back up. I think hamstrings and core are whats really holding back my squat (or I guess in this case making it decline).

I actually deadlifted at the school at the UC instead of the rec center...I got around the corner so the girl wouldn't see me as much. Used mixed-grip and changed it every other set (double overhand for last set). Grip was a huge limiting factor at 315...not so much weakness but sweat. Too bad we can't use chalk. Preacher curls were just experimentation to see how they felt.

Failed twice with 275 lbs...hopefully it's just because I haven't done any lower body work for awhile. Last time I got it, I know it was legit so I'm positive I can do it. I was pissed though, so I did a few chins and left. Did the pistols and planche at the apt. I've been playing around with the beast skills a little everyday, just not posting it. I wanted to write it down so I know where I've progressed from.

DB bench got hard...and miltary press sucked. Maybe it was all the beast skills stuff I was playing with yesterday, cause that REALLY made my front delts (among other things) work. Too many shoulder exercises...I really need to start planning better. I did do a set of DB curls with 45lbs. after the first set of lateral raises but could only get 5 reps (pathetic) so I scratched curls.

Wednesday, August 20, 2008

At home not working again because of rain. The gym isn't open today...again. I'm bored and got to reading the Beast Skills site and think I may try to incorporate some of these skills in training. I can already do several, such as the headstand and one-legged squat. I clicked on a link that discusses progressions for doing the planche and front lever. I don't have a chin-up bar assessable so I skipped the front lever for the time being and focused on the planche. I tried the first progression for the planche...its the frog stand.

The gymnastics coach that wrote it says to get to where you can hold it for 60 seconds taking as many sets as you need, and eventually get to where you can hold it for 60 seconds straight. I had done this before not knowing what it was, so I knew I could do it. The first two 60 second periods took me two sets mainly because I lost my balance. Then after some more rest I concentrated on my balance and got it. I'll do it a few more times today before moving to the next progression. Its harder than it sounds...my shoulders are shaking right now. I'll do some more bodyweight exercises throughout the day.

Deadlifts are definitely much harder after doing squats. Wish I could have gotten all 5 reps...I really think I could if I don't do squats first and I had a bar with decent knurling. I think if I can do 300x3x5 I could surely do 315x1x5.

I don't know why I can't bench worth a damn. I figured going down 10 pounds would be easy, but I barely got it...it felt so heavy. There's def a different in the amount I can bench at home vs. at school. The bench is wider at home, and gives noticeably more stability. I've also usually worked all day before working out at school vs. being fresh at home. I don't know...maybe its some of both reasons.

Okay, I had to re-start over. Last Wed I went in and they wouldn't let me in since I'm not taking any classes...so I had to pay for the summer membership. I just got it yesterday, which is why I'm starting today. I now weighed in at 180 lbs. this morning...thats a big drop from the 190's I was weighing before the long hiatus and bad diet. I hope to make good progress this summer.

Bad work out. Apparently I can close-grip bench press more than I can regular bench press...which I thought was never the case. I was/am pretty exhausted from baking in the sun for hours today while fishing, so hopefully that has something to do with it...I hope. I'll find out next time.

Weak on bench press. Weak on chins and dips. Shits weak, son.

Re-irritated my back picking up a set of dumbells during bench press (it was already sore). Only did 4 sets of chin-ups (thought I had done five). Think I'm a little out of it today...though it was still an intense workout. I didn't do a horizontal pull movement cause I feared it would hurt my back more. I could/should have done some curls or something...3 exercises doesn't feel like I did much. Storm was coming and I had to walk home from the gym, so maybe leaving early was a good idea after all. I might go do some curls and stuff tomorrow after the softball game.
